Other tips to help prepare students for combined fall and winter registration include:
• Checking your SAIL account for any holds or unpaid bills that may prevent you from registering on time.
• Verifying that you meet the prerequisites for the course before you try to register for it. Look for the prerequisites in the graduate and/or
undergraduate catalog or on the
Class Schedule Search.
• Having your first-choice classes on a list, with a couple alternatives, so you can register promptly without having to search when a class is full. Just go to the Class Schedule Search.
• Registering for fall courses before winter to avoid registration errors.
